ASTAR

Singer/Songwritter

ASTAR is an upcoming artist, songwriter, actress, designer, philanthropist and entrepreneur. She has performed around the world and received many awards for her music, academic achievements, and community service. She arrived with her mother in Senegal at an early age where she benefited from a solid education. All her childhood, ASTAR was cradled in the musical universe through her mother who loved music. At 9 years old, she attracted many brands and began to appear in commercials thanks to her stage presence, her energy, and her beauty. At 11, ASTAR released her first song that revealed the start of a promising career receiving an abundance of love and support from the Senegalese. She begins stage performances everywhere around her country. Part of her experience was the big opportunities she had such as being nominated for children's ambassador at the Universal EXPO Milano in Italy, getting nominated for the Now United global competition organized by Simon Fuller, and singing the official anthem of the 26th edition of FIBA ​​women's Afrobasket in 2019.

In 2018, everything shattered after her mother passed away. She was her manager and her number-one supporter. Losing her was a huge step back in the young artist's career. ASTAR took this obstacle as a positive force and not a downfall, she worked harder than before having one goal in mind, to continue her mother's mission for her.

ASTAR started touring African countries such as Sierra Leone where she worthily represents her country at the biggest African festival ‘ECOFEST', Gambia, and Mauritania. She became the youngest most awarded artist in Senegal. Not to mention her non-profit community service “ASTAR Foundation helping children in need all over Senegal.

ASTAR is on her way to inspiring and becoming the African-American artist she aspires to be.
